Hey, I didn't write this one at midnight like
the other one! I started this on at 2:30 AM on
the 23rd of May and finished it at 4:00 that very
morning. ::sweatdrop:: And everyone wonders why
I sleep in so late? For all those people
wondering where the next chapter of TRST is?
Um... blame my writer's block... I'm trying,
minna! Don't kill me!
This is dedicated to my imouto-chan, Kari! This
is a late birthday present, chica-chan! Kari's
birthday was last Sunday, June 3rd. Happy 14th
girl! Don't ask me when this occurs... it could
be an alternate reality for all I care. And I'm
not promising it's any good... Email me, people!
Lyrics in the ~*~*~'s.

This song is from Enya's "Watermark" CD. And,
obviously, it's called "On Your Shore." Don't

On Your Shore

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Strange how
my heart beats
to find myself upon your shore.
Strange how
I still feel
My loss of comfort gone before.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Silent tears ran their course down her cheeks.
She wept mutely at her window, staring at the
night sky that held so much beauty. She loved
the night; it was always so quiet, so calme, so
beautiful. A teardrop splashed onto her hand,
the girl looked up at the moon hanging so
gloriously brilliant against the silent black
velvet of space. She pressed her palm to her
chest, right above her heart, and felt her heart
beat. Her heart beat in unison with his, this
she knew. They were connected heart and soul.
She missed him.
Another teardrop.
She was lonely. Lonely for his companionship,
his presence, his love. They would get over this
seperation, she knew, but oh, how her heart
ached for him. Her body hurt because he was not
there, with her. She missed how he would comfort
her when she was upset, he would hold her,
stroker her hair, and rock her back and forth
like a child, whispering loving words into her
ear. She had taken him for granted; she had not
realized just how much she loved him until it
was too late, she did not know it would hurt
this much.
She fell asleep finally, and dreamed a sorrowful
dream...
She was on an island, all alone. The waves
crashed onto the shore. She looked across the
ocean and saw another island and a man on that
island. She recognized him immediately, who
could forget the face of their beloved? She
reached out to him, wishing she could cross the
ocean to be with him. She began to cry and leapt
into the sea, determined to swim to him. She
swam and swam but in the end she never reached
him. Her hand bobbed above the water, the only
visible part of her body. Finally, the hand sank
below surface...
She drowned.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Cool waves wash over
and drift away with dreams of youth
so time is stolen
I cannot hold you long enough.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The black waves crashed against her legs, she
had waded up to her knees into the ocean. The
stars glowed brightly tonight and the half moon
still hung, it's silvery light contrasting but
fitting in perfectly with the darkness of the
night sky. Her dress was soaked but she did not
care, all that mattered was the fact that he was
not here with her. How she missed her Mamo-chan.
"Usako..."
She swung around and stared at her lover. His
ebony hair almost as silver as her own in the
moonlight and his blue eyes the color of the
ocean during a fierce storm. She ran into his
arms and cried into his shirt; no words passed
between the two, none were needed. Time was
passing, she needed to get home, but she would
not let him go. They went back to his apratment
and she called her mother. She told her that she
would not be home tonight, Mamo-chan was home.
Her mother understood, she was no longer a
child, but a woman. Her childhood was coming to
an end. She returned to his arms, she couldn't
get enough of his touch.
They would not be seperated tonight.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
And so
this is where I should be now
Days and nights falling by
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
She laid with him, her eyes closed. She was with
him again, and that is all that matters. She was
where she wanted to be, in his arms; she was
where she belonged. She opened her eyes and
gazed at her love's face; she stroked his hair
and whispered, "We are together again, my love.
We will not be seperated again." He smiled and
kissed her; the sky filled with colors as the
sun rose and the moon and stars disappeared, but
it did not matter.
They were together.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Days and nights falling by me.
I know
of a dream I should be holding
days and nights falling by
Days and nights falling by me.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
They never seperated from each other. They went
everywhere with each other, never loosing sight
of the other. She only went back home to get
clothes, then she returned to his apartment.
Days and nights came went, but she was always
with him. She always dreamed the same dream. She
was alone on an island and he was alone on
another island, far away from her. But one thing
kept changing in the dream. Every night, the
distance between them lessened.
They were getting closer.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Soft blue horizons
reach far into my childhood days
as you are rising
to bring me my forgotten ways.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The sun was just beginning to rise on the ocean,
casting a delicate blue on the ocean all the way
to the horizon. She remembered when she used to
get up early as a child so she could watch the
sun rise, she always loved the soft calm of the
gentle blue on the horizon. Mamo-chan used to
come out with her back then, and this morning he
came out with her again. The sun had risen, and
the sea was breath-taking as usual. Mamo-chan
picked her up and ran into the freezing water
with her in his arms as they used to do as a
child. They both tumbled into the sea and when
they came up again he kissed her. She laughed,
some things would never change.
At least she hoped not.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Strange how I falter
to find I'm standing in deep water
strange how my heart beats
to find I'm standing on your shore.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She laid her head on his chest, her ear pressed
against it so she could hear his heart beat. It
was a soft, deep, rhythmic sound that soothed
her. She fell more in love with him with each
beat; while sometimes that scared her, it
thrilled her and made her happier beyond her
wildest dreams. The rhythmic "thum" of his
heart beat eventually lulled her into a gentle
slumber. Tonight, her dream was different.
She was on an island and beside her island was
another island. As she watched, the two islands
melded together to make one giant island. She
looked around the giant island to see that he
was on that island. It must have been his island
that melted together with hers! They cried and
hugged each other, niether willing to let the
other go. They laid down on the sand together
and listened to the crash of the waves against
the sandy beach. She smiled, she'd finally
reached his shore. Their two hearts beat in
unison, both with each other and their
surrounding, and then, a third heart beat joined
in. She rested her hand on her stomach.
She was pregnant.

Like it? Hate it? I'm not totally sure if it's
very good, but if it is, great! Tell me what you
think. I hate writer's block. I literally
*forced* myself to write this! So tell me if
it's any good, I need feedback!
